Queen Kapiolani accepted the invitation
of the Board of Education to visit some of
the city schools, and at 10 a. m. yesterday
left the Victoria Hotel, accompanied by
Miss Dodge, Mrs. Agnew. President Sim
mons and Commissioner Crary of the
Board, and proceeded to the Normal Col
lege. All of the Royal party were present
except the Princess. The Queen inspected
everything at the college, as is her custom.
and expressed great pleasure in what she
saw One of the public schools was also
visited.
In the afternoon Her Majesty and her
party visited
FIRE HEADQUARTERS
in Sixty-seventh street. The Royal party
were received by Fire Commissioners Gro
ker and Purroy. Among those present
were Mayor Hewitt, Mrs, and Miss Hew-
lit and Consul E. H. Allen. The party
went over the quarters, and then took
seats behind the building, where some
thirty picked fremen gave an exhibition
of how firemen save lives at a fire. Exten-
sion ladders were run up to the top of the
building, some ninety feet high, and the
fremen ran up and down like cats, to the
great delight of the Queen. Jumping into
the net and playing with the hose consti-
tuted the rest of the programme The
Queen asked one of the fremen what a
man required to become good fireman;
and upon his replying that pluck and
nerve were necessary, the Queen remarked
that she thought she had enough nerve to
be fireman; certainly if she were a man
she would be fireman, as she knew that
she would enjoy the life

THE ANTAGONIST OF RACE.

This antagOnlsm, or a narrow, clanlSh
spirit, which often sets race against
race, is a fruitful source OF mischief, and
offers some of the worst phases of mans
inhumanity to man. But this evil spirit
has never been manifested in these
peaceful islands. We have seen nothing
of those bitter antagonisms which have
excited white and brown races to destroy
each other in Asia and America. Here
the confiding brown man, when he was
much the stronger of the two, welcomed
the white man as friend and councillor,
and even as ga keiki, or child of his
household. And now that he is de-
Ginning in numbers, whilst the foreigner
is strong, increasing and dominant-the
native Of the soil still trusts and con-
fdes, and accepts with the early con-
fidence the cooperation or help and ad-
vice of his strong white brother. This
cordial determination of brown and
white, and white and brown, was incul-
Gated as solemn legacy of policy by
the Great Founder of the Kingdom to
his successors, and his successors up to
the present day have faithfully observed
and have been guided by that policy. 1t
may be said it has not been policy, but
rather generous outgrowth of this en-
ightened and broad-minded Polynesian
Stock
There has not been the shadow of any
uprising or agitation to mark any an
tagonism of race, as between Hawaiians
and tn. Sc Of European race in these
Islands. But the Hawaiian has had
reason to hope for fair and generous
treatment. When the early Chiefs re-
ceived and honored Intelligent white
foreigners as advisers, organizers and adj
ministrators in the matter of govern
ment, they were assured, and it was Just
and honorable to give the assurance, by
such men as Wyllie, Judd and Ricord
that they held to a large extent the reins
of>government in their hands, in order
to prepare native men to take part in the
government of their country; and if this
political recognition is ignored at any
time then there is occasion for the Ha-
waiian to feel disappointed, and be in
political antagonism to those who want
to deny such recognition. The native
Hawaiian cannot be aroused to active
hostility against the foreign race with
whom he is so intimately related
and with whom he has so
trustingly and cordially co-operated
with in the work of govern
ment, and we are assured and no
enc who knows the Hawaiians will
doubt what we say, that the foreigner
who should attempt the excitement of
an unreasoning antagonism or hostility
of race as between Hawaiians and white
men, would be rejected politically by
the good sense and generous spirit OF
the Hawaiian people.
But let there be no sneers about Ha-
waiian incapacIty, for they will surely
resent such sneers with their votes

vesant Fish, Mrs. Dahlgren, Mrs. Fatter-
son. Mrs. Charles R. Flint and Frederick
H Allen.
Her Majesty was dressed in black and
wore a cloak with fur and yellow fuzzy
collar. The party boarded the steamer
Minnehannock, at the foot of East Twenty
sixth street, and on arriving on the island,
Her Majesty leaning on the Mayors arm,
headed the procession and led the way to
the Charity Hospital. She inspected sew
eral wards and looked
so KIND AND MoTHERLY
And interested that some of the women
patients were almost tempted to swap baby
stories with her. The Queen talked Ha-
waiian mother talk to the babies, who un-
derstood all that she said.
The next place visited was the Nurses
New Home. and here the Queen, as in the
hospital, inspected everything and was
greatly interested. The party then went
to the Penitentlary and was taken through
the cell corridors. The Queen inspected
the dark cell with considerable curiosity
and then looked at the 'delirium tremens"
cell Warden P1llsbury said that he would
show Her Majesty the PRISONS big snake,
and presently monotOnous shutting was
heard and around the corner came band
of convicts, shutting along in lock-step,
dreary-looking snake and a wretched
Combine"
In honor of the Queen the
DRAMATIC CORPS
OF the ASYLUM under Miss Glynn, gave an
entertainment in the Amusement Hall,
which was profusely decorated. The pros
cenium was decorated with the national
colors, and a semi-circe of chairs were
similarly adorned, In the center more
imposing chair was set apart for the
Queen.
The patients knew they were to see
Queen and were much interested, but
more decorous audience could not be found
IN Chickering or Steinway Hall.
Her Majesty entered, leaning on the arm
of Mayor Hewitt. At that moment Helen
Krause struck up the "Reveil de Lion" on
the piano The curtain then went up and
the farce, The MischieyOus Niger" was
then given by six of the patients, who
acted with great spirit. When the curtain
fell Matte Morgan sang, accompanying
herself on the piano.
After the song Mayor Hewitt gave the
Queen his arm and the procession moved
out, where carriages were waiting. The
Queen was very affable, bowling right and
left to the patients.

There seems to be a large number of peo-
pie in this city who once lived in the Sand
wich Islands, for Queen Kapiolani's morn
ings are now pretty much taken up with
giving audiences and ices to ex-Sandwich-
ers. Yesterday morning Her Majesty re-
ceived number of people who had once
lived in her insular Kingdom, and it was
II o'clock before Her Majesty got away
from the Victoria Hotel The ROYAL
party went to Falk's where Her Majesty.
Gov. Iaukea and Col. Boyd had their pho
tographs taken. Then the party returned
to the hotel where Miss Hewitt, daughter
of Mayor Hewitt. was waiting for them,
and they all drove around the city, visit
ing different establishments, where the
Queen saw some specimens of embroidery,
fine needle work, ETC., which greatly
pleased her. The Academy of Design, in
Twenty-third street, was also visited. By
invitation the party visited William H.
Vanderbilt's house in Fifth avenue, and
went all through it. Then the party re-
turned to the hotel and after a short stay
rode to the house Of Mrs. James B. Will
Jams, and there took luncheon.

AT THE CASINO.

On her return from her days tour
among the charitable institutions. the
Queen took a rest and dined late at her
hotel AS it was generally known that she
would go to the Casino in the evening, Il
large number of friendly spectators
thronged the hotel corridors and the side
walks outside to see her to her carriage.
But at 10 minutes past O'Clock she had
not appeared, and rumor that she had
gone out by another door dispersed the
crowd Five minutes later the Queen and
her suite went out by tho Fifth Avenue
door, entered two carriages and drove away
to the Casino. She seemed greatly pleased
with the opera, and glasses were levelled
at her box from all parts of the house.

The reunion Of the Third Georgia regi-
ment at Eatonton next August will be a no
table event. It viii bring together the sur
vivors of as gallant a corps as ever left the
State TO serve in any war, and it will afford
opportunity for recalling to memory mon
and deeds that should never be forgotten.
The Third Georgia was composed Of com
panies from the Middle and Southeastern
sections of the State It's officers were gen
tlemen of high standing, and certainly no
others that served the Confederacy were
drawer or more faithful to duty. The
privatcs showed their devotion to the cause
they served in many a hard fought battle
in the valleys and upon the mountains of
Virginia, and by no means few OF them
lost their lives while doing so.
1t issometimes urged that it is profitless for
ex-Confederate soldiers to meet together
and recount their experiences in the war,
but this is mistake. Ex-Confederate
soldiers were influenced in their course
by what they believed to be their duty.
Meetings like that of the Third Georgia stir
up no ill-feeling toward cx-Union soldiers,
nor do such meetings cause the participants
TO feel any the less loyal toward the govern
ment. They serve as a memorial to the
dead, as an occasion for renewing old friend
ships and as means of keeping fresh the
memory Of deeds of valor which are part of
the history of the American people.
Among the men who helped the Third
Georgia win fame were Ambrose r. Wright,
Edward j. Walker, James S. Reid, R. B.
Nisbet, c. Snead, Augustus H. Lee, John
r. Sturgis, A. B. Montgomery, John F.
Jones and &. E. Hayes. Some are dead,
but they are not forgotten. Those that sur
vive are prominent in the places of their
residence, and all Of them are as faithful in
the discharge of duty in time of peace as
they were in time of war
1t is to be hoped that no survivor Of the
Third Georgia will be absent from the APP
proachlng reunion

Troublesome Gen. Keifer.

Gen. Keifer was Speaker of the House in
! the Forty-eighth Congress and it was some
times thought that the press treated him I'M
| Justly. Some comments on him and his acts
as Speaker, which appeared from to time in
the newspapers, were not of a complimentary
character. These comments were not. how
ever, undeseIved. As Speaker Gen. Keifer
was ignorant, obstinate and rather unscru-
pulous, and his party was sorry that it ever
placed him in so prominent position.
He is having little controversy at pres
ent which shows pretty clearly what sort of
a man he i. The Society of the Army of
the Cumberland is soon TO unveil a statue of
Garfield at Washington, and the monument
committee, without authority, asked Gen.
keifer to deliver an Grafton on the occasion.
He accepted the invitation and began at
once to prepare one of his characteristic
addresses. The Society heard of the action
of the monument committee and once
took steps, in very quiet way,to nullify it.
Gen. Keifer was kindly informed that a
mistake had been made, and that it was not
desired that he should deliver an Grafton
He was not told how Objectionable he was
and that his presence in so prominent a
position would greatly interfere with the
plans of the Society, because there was no
disposition to wound him. He refused,
however, to take the hint and withdraw
his acceptance of the monument
committees invitation. He simply an
nounced his purpose to deliver the Grafton,
notwithstanding the society'S opposition
The committee entreated him to reconsider his
determination, ndrather plainly limited that
he was so unpopular that many people would
have nothing to do with the unwilling cere-
monies if he were the orator. Gen. Keifer
remained deaf to all entreaties. He had
secured a chance to make himself con
spicuous on an important occasion, and he
did not intend to throw it away.
The society concluded that if Gen. Keller
wouldn't take a hint it would find a way to
get rid OF him. 1t has decided to give the
monument committee only twenty minutes
TO carry out its part of the programme, and
when the chairman has made his little talk
and other important things have been at
tended to, there viii not be much time for
Gen. Keifer to make his long address. He
may get an opportunity to say few words
but it is certain that the society will not be
troubled with him long.
Gen. Keifer's conduct in this instance is
characteristic, He is mad because he has
fallen into obscurity and that there is
10 longer a disposition in his party to
make him conspicuous again. Most men on
being notified that their services are not
wanted gracefully retire. Mr. Keifer, how
ever, is not one of the retiring kind He
will bear the odium of presenting himself
where he is not wanted rather than miss the
opportunity of letting the world know that
he isn't dead 1t can hardly he possible
that he appreciates how little the world
cares whether he is dead or not
